Yob is an American Stoner / Doom Metal band from Eugene, Oregon, formed in 1996 by Mike Scheidt.

In 2006, about eight months after Travis Foster and Isamu Sato had left the band, Mike Scheidt decided to disband Yob and formed a new group called Middian.
In 2008 Yob reformed without Isamu Sato, who was replaced by Aaron Rieseberg.

Stoner Rock / Doom Metal band from San Francisco, CA, formed in 1993 by Lori S, Joey Osbourne and Peter Lucas. Their name is derived from the book "Say You Love Satan" about satanic murderer Ricky Kasso (nicknamed "Acid King").

"The old and oft quoted adage about “the music speaking for itself” is not a callous or casual statement when applied to the Sacramento, California based doom quintet Church, who have been hard at work crafting their particular brew of sound since late 2013. There is no image or campy gimmick to uphold, only the humble continuation and glorification of those fundamental musical elements that first built and then sustained the genre and it’s offshoots over the course of decades.

This purity and honesty comes across in a striking manner on the band’s debut ‘Unanswered Hymns’, a sprawling roller coaster of an album that plumbs the heights and depths of emotion, whether be it sorrow, loss, or redemption. Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Patrick Hills at Earthtone Studios in Rocklin, CA, the recording exudes a warm, organic tone that draws the listener in to music heavily influenced by traditional doom, psych rock, drone, and ambience. Church cannily wields dynamic songwriting, musicianship, and raw power to spin a spellbinding tale of occult darkness that clashes with illuminating melodies and riffs drenched in grimy reverb. Minimalistic, indulgent, or straightforward, the music of Church is simply whatever the listener wants it to be."
